Originally from Southern California, I am a young architecture student seeking employment in the design, construction and real estate industry. With experience in both architecture and construction, I am eager to grow within the building industry and find my professional niche. Beginning a project and seeing it through to the built end result is a fascinating process that I hope to become an integral part of and further understand.
